A Beginner’s Guide to Building a Japanese Pantry in Portland - Eater Portland
"Uwajimaya is a Japanese-American-owned Asian grocery store in Beaverton with a selection that’s comparable to a mid-sized supermarket in Tokyo. Its shelves are loaded with hard-to-find condiments, Japanese cuts of fish, and a huge selection of noodles and snacks. The deli sells prepared food like tempura, soba, unadon (grilled eel on rice), chirashi sushi, nigiri, and sashimi. And Uwajimaya even houses a complete Kinokinuya bookstore (a popular Japanese bookstore chain), a ramen shop, and a great selection of Asian face masks, Japanese hotpot equipment, and yukatas (a traditional Japanese garment similar to a kimono)." - Jade Yamazaki Stewart
